New Zealand cricketers are praying for rain in Columbo.
No New Zealand cricket team in the entire history of test cricket has ever lost six consecutive test matches. They lost five in 1954 – 55 but not SIX.

Looks like the Law and the Court maybe starting to harden up to protestors.
After the Waihope debacle its not before time. You cause loss to people through your actions you should pay. Lucy the Warrior might just be the first.

Greenpeace protesters asked to pay $700,000

Eight Greenpeace protesters, headed by Lucy Lawless, are being asked to pay $700,000 after pleading guilty earlier this year to illegally boarding the drillship Noble Discoverer in February.

“Shell is assisting the police and the court with their inquiry into the costs associated with the delay to the operator, Shell Todd Oil Services.”

To date the figure of more than $700,000 was the estimated cost to the Noble Discoverer contractor, Shell Todd Oil Services, of the delay caused by the Greenpeace occupation, Mr Jager said.

Senior Sergeant Malcolm Greig confirmed yesterday the sentencing was adjourned and a new date was yet to be scheduled.

In the meantime, police continued to work with the victims, Shell, to verify the reparation amount, he said.
